I don't have any drift wood. The water was nice and clear for the first couple of days after I added the limestone and coral. I rinsed it all very very well I hate a cloudy mess like you get when you don't rinse. The cloudiness started this morning and it's white not green. I am going to throw some filter floss in the sump chamber and see if it helps. I think maybe the PH going so low might have killed off my bacteria? Maybe this is the beginning of a cycle? Maybe I'm just paranoid. Ill let it go till tomorrow and test everything again. if its good ill add some fish.
